Brighton defense dominates in 12-0 win O’Bryant

Despite a bitter wind at Madison Park High School, the “unofficial” city championship between the Brighton Bengals and the O’Bryant Tigers raged on in front of a Thanksgiving morning crowd. And it was ultimately Brighton who came out victorious, 12-0, over an O’Bryant squad that just couldn’t stimulate any offense.

It was dubbed the unofficial city championship because both Brighton and O’Bryant won their respective divisions this season, finishing 5-0 in league play. Both teams also finished 8-3 overall.

When Madison Park bowed out of its usual Thanksgiving matchup with O’Bryant because of injuries, Brighton jumped in.
